After three years' preparation, China's first women's culture museum was opened on Wednesday in the Shaanxi Normal University in northwest China's Shaanxi Province.

The museum, covering 200 square meters, is displaying over 600 exhibits in five sections.

Qu Yajun, curator of the museum, said that Professor Li Xiaojiang donated her entire collection of 400 items relating to women's anthropology to Shaanxi Normal University in 1997, and the university allocated a special fund to set up the museum.
